Abstract

In this study, we report for the first time reduced expression of the let-7 microRNA in human lung cancers. Interestingly, 143 lung cancer cases that had undergone potentially curative resection could be classified into two major groups according to let-7 expression in unsupervised hierarchical analysis, showing significantly shorter survival after potentially curative resection in cases with reduced let-7 expression (P = 0.0003). Multivariate COX regression analysis showed this prognostic impact to be independent of disease stage (hazard ratio = 2.17; P = 0.009). In addition, overexpression of let-7 in A549 lung adenocarcinoma cell line inhibited lung cancer cell growth in vitro. This study represents the first report of reduced expression of let-7 and the potential clinical and biological effects of such a microRNA alteration.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
